How long does it normally take for someone to do a update in the arcane relm? sorry don't want to rush anybody but knowing when something is coming is great! thanks!

It depends really from updator to updator, as they usually have things going on IRL so they can't crank out updates, but don't let it bother you. I mean, I waited for a month before Marbs' took over some of the AR members and updated, but I don't really care because I'm having a fun time in his adventure for me. As it is nearing summer, though, I think that the speed some updators update at will increase, but like I said, don't worry about this now. Part of the fun is waiting to see what the updator throws at you.

If you are hankering to do a bit of RP, though, Check out the Fizzytopian Park and Gardens here in the TO area, or the Bar over on UPN TO. As they are completly unaffected by mainstream zones, you can use Pokemon that are in an adventure or a shop there, and meet some of the other members of FB. That is what i'm doing in the Park currently with Missingno. Master and my Drowzee and Panpour. And my trainer is currently wandering around doing absolutly nothing, so... I'll be happy to meet ya in there!

Feel like a different style of battling? Where your Charizard isn't useless
because your opponent has Stealth Rock up? Why not check out the:

Pokémon Animé Style Battling League!

ASB has it's own subforum where you can can start with a basic squad of whatever
first-stage Pokémon you want, and work your way up! Not sure how to begin?
We have a Getting Started thread that covers the basics, plus you can ask for help in our Time Out Chat Thread.

As long as you've got a link to your profile in your sig and link to the right stuff then it'll be fine.

But like I said, the only shops you can use on UPN are the exclusive ones, so stuff like the Casino and Adoption Centre. Other ones like the Daycare Centre and Berry House have to be used on your Homeboard.

To clarify, you'll want to link to your Profile in Zones, but remember not to post your signature in any shop. Just link to the appropriate threads such as the Bank or Coin Exchange here if you want to use the Adoption Center or Casino.

Sadly it isn't female, otherwise I'd be all over that. Knives from my Rubylocke needs an heir!
In other news, Congratulations!

Good Sir, like I said before, don't panic about how long it takes for your adventure to be picked up. IIRC I mentioned waiting for about a month before MZ picked up mine and that it was (and still is) worth the wait. I'm assuming Marion and Tess are still a bit too busy IRL to update you every other week, remember we are real people with real schedules (Like i'm currently not preparing for my A2 Exams).

Besides, like I said before, there are other things you can do while you wait, like peruse the TO subforums. Dave's in your situation and he's taking advantage of them, why don't you if you are so hellbent on wanting to do stuff?
And I have effectively posted this twice now. Thanks for listening the first time :P

Speaking of the TO, I've just realised how much I'm gonna have to type in the next few replies to the Blue's dream storyline, as I want to, as everyone quoting inception would say, go deeper into a few more dreams.
Luckily the case of the missing Paras will be slightly easier to type up, only needing a paragraph at most. Just need a bloody name for the mischievous thing!

You might end up waiting a while. Might I suggest RPing in the Fizzytopian Parks, FB Bar or Nightclub?
They're not official zones so anything that happens there won't have any influence, but it's a good way to socialize, get familiar with the other players and train your own writing skills.
You won't be released from the AR until you are deemed a moderate writer anyway and practice never hurts.
